The Noch - Free Friday/Saturday (“FL&R”)

Free and Legal Downloads? Yes, at least temporarily. Bands often temporarily permit free downloads of their releases.The end of an offer may be based on the expiration of a set period of time or on a limited number of downloads.But at least for now, here is a song that qualifies as a Free, Legal and Recommended (FL&R) download.

Finding songs that can be legally downloaded is easy. The difficult task is to find legally downloadable music that we recommend. Our plan is to post at least one FL&R song each Friday/Saturday.

We agree with the content from the song release:

‘Lose Control’, the debut single from The Noch, is shrouded in mystery and deliberately inconspicuous; intended for those with a discerning ear. Assembled across multiple continents and featuring some of the hottest musicians in the biz, the project is the brainchild of an Australian producer who has been teasing tastemakers under various aliases for longer than you would imagine.

The Noch possesses a sound that verges on the edge of tomorrow, dragging the best bits of yesterday in its wake. ‘Lose Control’ features a killer guitar riff that conjures images of smoky clubs and 80’s hair metal, countered by a modern drum groove and tastefully executed synth arpeggios. Vocals are supplied by an enigmatic siren, who is currently gracing the airwaves worldwide with other chart topping releases. The combination is equally appealing to fans of indie rock and electronica.

Packed into just over three memorable minutes, the track climaxes with soaring strings and an intensity that leaves the listener delirious. Lending a decidedly British warmth to ‘Lose Control’ is mix engineer Hugo Nicolson (Radiohead, Beck, Primal Scream).
